Halburn's trial has been scheduled for January 27, 2010, at 10 AM before Kanawha County Magistrate Traci Carper-Strickland. The public is invited to attend.
According to a citation issued by Vernon, Halburn was busted after after forcing his way into the swimming pool at Shawnee Park in Institute on August 30, 2009. After refusing to leave, Halburn was arrested. Unfortunately for him, the Kanawha County Sheriff Department SWAT Team was conducting exercises there at the time. Halburn is charged with a misdemeanor.
Halburn is the "Publisher" of PutnumLive.com, an internet blog. He also claims to be a journalist. He was not on duty at the time of his arrest.
PutnamLIES.com readers may recall that we broke the story of the arrest immediately after it happened. The EXCLUSIVE STORY detailed the circumstances surrounding the crime.
Halburn's Kanawha County Magistrate Court case number is 09m 10170.
Uh oh, Markie. What are you going to do now that your best Facebook friend isn't going to hear the case?

Hopefully the real media will televise the event.
ReplyDeleteWill the hearing be open to the public? It would be awesome to have a group of folks there wearing Putnamlies merchandise :)
ReplyDeleteI believe everyone is welcome.
ReplyDeletePutnamLies merchandise is available here.
Hallburn just won the case. They blew the 120 day speedy trial rule.
ReplyDeleteTell it to the judge, fatboy.
ReplyDeleteSee how far that gets you.
Guilty.
Next.
Is he interwebbing from his tropical island bought by all the money he makes from his news site???
ReplyDeleteDo they have the death penalty for trespassing in West Virginia?
ReplyDeleteI sure hope so.
Big thanks to Mike Ballburn for calling into the show last night (01/01/10)! What a way to kick off the year.
ReplyDeleteGlad to be a part of the Bad Side.
ReplyDeleteI understand that Kim Aron was removed from the case despite specifically asking to hear it.
ReplyDeleteNo home cooking for you!!!
Interesting read here of another local trial in Putnam County, am surprised that Putnamblob isn't covering this:
ReplyDeletehttp://wvgazette.com/News/201001050606
From the Gazette article above on the "other case" not covered by Putnam County's Leading Source of News:
ReplyDelete"She said her husband has underlying mental-health issues...."
Get with the program Putnamblob!
Are you kidding?
ReplyDeleteThey're butt buddies.
Too bad Halburn can't share a cell with him once he's convicted too.
That's OK though. We've got it covered in our Read It Here section.
Once again showing why PutnamLIES.com is Putnam County's REAL news leader.
Putnamlies.com broke the Sexton story first! Where was Mark? (not) in Hawai'i ? Tuning in all the new TV's in his house? Redressing his grievances to "former" Hurricane City Councilmen in Sheetz? Bullying young girls at pools?
ReplyDeleteYou're so big on arrests and trials here, write up this one...
Looks like Putnamblob has put the article into his blog now but it just takes the reader to a signup for netflix.... nice try. Amazing he is, what a news ace reporter he is for Putnam County's SECOND leading news leader...
ReplyDeleteThanks Mike for providing the #1 coverage to this news breaking story! Putnamblob is going to low blows (they will need to do that later at south central or Mount Olive -- if you know what I mean) to try to divert his blogster audience to "netflix" sign ups....
ReplyDeleteMany thanks!
